Unable to recognize the disk in HP UX 11.0

Hi Admins,

I added a new disk, and ran ioscan -fnC disk, then i got following output.

disk 26 10/4/4.8.0 disc3 CLAIMED DEVICE SEAGATE ST39173WC

Even i ran "insf -C disk", but there is no change is ioscan command.
How to get /dev/dsk.. and /dev/rdsk..

Regards,
Viswa.

Hi:

A reboot will get you the device files when the old IO tree is compared to the new hardware scan.

or

Hi Vishwa,

1.ioscan -fnC disk
2.insf -eH 10/4/4.8.0
3.ioscan -fnC disk

then probably you will get the device file.

In otherway if the device shows unclaimed , then probably you can rmsf -kH 10/4/4.8.0,
then try again insf -eH 10/4/4.8.0.

Thanks,
Analyst.

ioscan -fnC disk

insf -e (or) insf -H 10/4/4.8.0

to get extactly /dev/dsk.. and /dev/rdsk.. for the disk you added

ioscan -fnH 10/4/4.8.0
(above command will show you only the /dev/dsk.. and /dev/rdsk for above hardware path)

Thx,

Problems are common to all, but attitude makes the difference
